A 7-year-old boy from India got an approximately 3-inch nail lodged in his brain after falling on the nail while playing
The iron nail pierced his neck and went up to his brain, “barely missing a blood vessel,” according to medical professionals at King George’s Medical University in Lucknow
The surgery to remove the nail lasted four hours, as doctors had to avoid damaging the brain and “sensitive nerves between the mouth and the brain”
A young boy in India is lucky to be alive after a freak accident that caused an approximately 3-inch nail to pierce his brain.
